Chapter 177: Chapter 177 Teacher Qiao, You Are So Dirty
"I’m off."
Shen Dang gently flicked Qiao Xi’s forehead.
Qiao Xi glared at the culprit before her. Itchy hands, huh?
Shen Dang gave her an innocent smile, then wrapped an arm around her shoulders and led her away.
Su Tutu also pulled Sheng Chao by the hand, "Husband, let’s go home too, I really don’t want to see certain people."
"Mhm."
The doting President Sheng naturally followed his wife’s lead.
The four of them entered the elevator together and then headed to their respective homes.
"Are you hungry? How about some late-night snacks?"
Shen Dang drove along the road, the streetlights cast alternating shadows and lights inside the car, and he turned to ask Qiao Xi.
"A bit," Qiao Xi, looking at her phone, replied, "but I don’t want to eat out."
The light cast a delicate face of hers into a mix of shadow and glow, radiating an ethereal charm.
His ex-wife was really very beautiful, Shen Dang spoke softly, "Then shall we go home?"
"Let’s." At that moment, Qiao Xi lifted her eyes to his, "I’ll just make myself a bowl of noodles."
When they arrived home, Qiao Xi took off her coat and headed towards the dining room.
Shen Dang grabbed her hand, and Qiao Xi turned to face him, frowning slightly.
"What’s up? Just say what you want, no need to pull and drag."
She withdrew her hand from his grip, looking down and not at him, not even realizing a brief awkwardness in her own expression.
Shen Dang chuckled at that moment, "Last night when you rolled into my arms, I couldn’t even push you away, tsk."
That final "tsk" made Qiao Xi’s scalp tingle, "I think you’re hallucinating from your dreams!"
Look at what he’s saying, is that even something people say?
How could she ever do such a thing?
Utter nonsense!
Shen Dang chuckled darkly, "Wish I had installed a camera in the room, then we’d see how you could deny it."
His current expression was quite helpless, but there was an imperceptible indulgence in his eyes.
Qiao Xi’s face changed, "I think you’re a pervert!"
To even consider installing a camera in the room!
Shen Dang lightly touched his cheek with the tip of his tongue, with a half-smiling expression, "Fine, this pervert will go make you some late-night snacks."
Qiao Xi: "..."
Pissing her off and exacerbating her discomfort, how can he be like this?
Qiao Xi wanted to adamantly refuse, but the thought of her own poor cooking skills made her speechless.
As they say, food is the most important thing for the people, bowing to good food is no mistake.
Qiao Xi went up to her room.
She had applied light makeup before going out and needed to remove it first.
By the time she came back down, Shen Dang had just served two portions of the late-night meal.
Qiao Xi took a seat by the dining table, looking at the exquisitely plated spaghetti, "Boss Shen really knows how to make everything."
Shen Dang’s eyes rested on her face, a slight smile on his lips, "In time, you’ll find that I’m a treasure."
Qiao Xi: "..."
Drinking water, Qiao Xi couldn’t help but spit it out in a laugh.
Who praises themselves like that?
Boss Shen really is a genius.
Shen Dang disdainfully pulled out a tissue to wipe the area she had spat on, "Teacher Qiao, you’re quite messy."
"!!!" Qiao Xi covered her mouth, grabbing a tissue while glaring at him with her eyes, "If you keep talking nonsense like that, I’ll spit this mouthful of water right in your face!"
Shen Dang pretended to pat his chest in fright, "I’m so scared."
Seeing his unconcerned attitude, Qiao Xi rolled her eyes at him.
After they finished the late-night meal, Qiao Xi went to wash the dishes as usual.
She had just started when Shen Dang collected the dishes, saying matter-of-factly, "Go to sleep, I’ll clean up."
Qiao Xi: "???"
"Weren’t we agreed that you cook and I wash?"
"Can’t we change our minds?"
Shen Dang retorted.
His eyes began to gleam seductively, his peach blossom eyes brimming with charm, very attentive as he gazed at her.
Qiao Xi’s scalp tingled once again.
"Fine, if you love washing dishes that much, I’ll leave it to you!"
With that, she quickly returned upstairs.
...
Unbeknownst to her, a rumor had begun circulating among Hai City’s elite—IDC Capital was planning a takeover of Qiao Enterprise.
Some linked this to Qiao Zhenbin’s family being ousted from IDC, possibly having offended Shen Dang.
What role then did Qiao Xi play in this?
The couple was not yet divorced. Was Shen Dang intent on destroying the Qiao family completely?
As rumors swirled outside, Qiao Xi did not delve into the matter.
Knowing he might have truly crossed Shen Dang, Qiao Zhenbin grew fearful.
Not only was IDC planning a hostile takeover of his company, they were also spreading the message, adding to Qiao Zhenbin’s humiliation.
He was completely upset.
He wanted to do something against Shen Dang, but it seemed futile.
Wasn’t it like throwing eggs at a rock to go against IDC Capital?
Qiao Zhenbin had somehow learned that Qiao Xi was staying at Yingyue Bay and had sought her out.
But he never got to see her.
Because Qiao Xi simply did not want to see him.
After a heavy snowfall, the weather gradually cleared up. The cast and crew received a new notification—the shoot would resume on the fifth day of the Lunar New Year.
On the fourth day, Shen Dang drove Qiao Xi to the airport.
The car parked beside the terminal building.
The sky was clear and blue-white clouds dotted it. The car’s interior was brightly lit, shining on her sleek black hair.
Shen Dang’s gaze drifted from her hair to her face, "Teacher Qiao, you’ll be finishing the shoot next time you come back, right?"
"Should be."
There was nothing for her back here until the filming was done.
"Then, see you next time."
"Mhm."
Just as Qiao Xi was about to get out of the car, Shen Dang suddenly called out to her, "Wait a second."
"Something else?"
"Goodbye."
"..."
Weirdo, didn’t we just say goodbye?
Qiao Xi got out of the car and met Su Tutu inside the airport; they boarded a plane to Jiang City together.
It was cold.
The film crew was resuming work after the new year.
Qiao Xi also received a red envelope from the crew.
When she got the red envelope, she suddenly remembered that she hadn’t opened the one given to her by the Shen family.
She had casually stuffed it into her luggage and brought it with her.
After finishing her part for the day, Qiao Xi returned to her hotel room to open the envelope.
Su Tutu poked her head in, "How much is in there?"
Instead of money, Qiao Xi took out two checks.
"Wow, the Shens sure are generous. Straight to checks, how much?"
Qiao Xi showed her.
Su Tutu: "Geez, that’s hefty!"
Suddenly, Qiao Xi remembered that Su Tutu had taken on an endorsement for a luxury jewelry brand before the new year.
"Tutu, help me order one of the necklaces you’re endorsing. Get it as quickly as possible; I’ll transfer you the money."
"Are you planning to give it to Madam Shen?"
"Yeah, I should return a gift to her."
She had received quite a few things from Ran Jing before.
By rights, after divorcing Shen Dang and settling the finances, she shouldn’t be taking money from the Shen family.
She couldn’t announce this, and returning a gift would be a polite gesture.
"OK, I’ll contact the brand for you. When it arrives, should I send it here or directly to Hai City?"
"Send it here first, then I’ll send it back."
"Sure."
A phone call to the brand from Su Tutu, and it was settled.
"But, are you planning to keep your divorce from Boss Shen a secret from the Shen family elders forever?"
